1-2. Sing God a brand-new song!Earth and everyone in it, sing!Sing to God—worship God!
2-3. Shout the news of his victory from sea to sea,Take the news of his glory to the lost,News of his wonders to one and all!
4-5. For God is great, and worth a thousand Hallelujahs.His terrible beauty makes the gods look cheap;Pagan gods are mere tatters and rags.
5-6. God made the heavens—Royal splendor radiates from him,A powerful beauty sets him apart.
7. Bravo, God, Bravo!Everyone join in the great shout: Encore!In awe before the beauty, in awe before the might.
8-9. Bring gifts and celebrate,Bow before the beauty of God,Then to your knees—everyone worship!
10. Get out the message—God Rules!He put the world on a firm foundation;He treats everyone fair and square.
11. Let’s hear it from Sky,With Earth joining in,And a huge round of applause from Sea.
12. Let Wilderness turn cartwheels,Animals, come dance,Put every tree of the forest in the choir—
